The fashionable friendship between Alexander McQueen and Isabella Blow is about to get its own cinematic moment. Variety reports that a movie about the late designer and editor's relationship is in the works.
Produced by Maven Pictures, the fashion drama titled The Ripper will showcase the British pair's often tumultuous relationship. Blow, who is credited with discovering McQueen, served as both a friend and muse for the British designer throughout his career. Both McQueen and Blow were known for their avant garde approach to fashion and style.
It has not been announced who will play the roles of McQueen and Blow in the film.
